Question
Give geographical reason.
The density of population is sparse in Amazon basin.
Solution
- The Amazon basin in Brazil has tropical rainforests as it is closer to the equator and it rains throughout the year.
- It has dense and diverse flora and fauna which is unfavourable for human inhabitation. Almost half of Brazil area is covered by the tropical rainforests of the Amazon basin.
- The dense forest makes human settlements very difficult in those areas.
- Rain forests aren't a very friendly environment for human habitation, i.e. lack of fresh water, dangerous animals, lack of solid ground, lack of dry shelter, skeeters, dense trees, limited fuel and food sources, and difficult transportation
